Details

"Every Brilliant Thing" is a one-person play full of laughter and beauty and tells a story about how tough life can be growing up, especially when it involves adults. Run time 1 hour.

You’re seven years old.
Mum’s in hospital.
Dad says "She’s done something stupid’.
She finds it hard to be happy.
You start a list of everything that’s brilliant about the world.
Everything worth living for.
You leave it on her pillow.
You know she’s read it because she’s corrected your spelling.

“… possibly one of the funniest plays you’ll ever see…”
- Lyn Gardner, The Guardian
